However in a statement on Sunday evening, by IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, the group blasted Kanu’s brother, saying he is not IPOB’s spokesman and therefore should be ignored.
Read full statement below:
“The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been drawn to the pouported suspension of Monday sit at home order issued by leadership of IPOB has been suspended by some section of media. We wish to remind every Biafran that the sit at home order remain sacrosanct on Monday tomorrow.

We know the situation of those going exam tomorrow but our demand is for them release our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and our people must understand that Fulani terrorists and co stopped our people school for three years during the genocidal war in 1967 to 1970 and it did not kill our people and this one day sacrifice for the release of somebody who has sacrificed a lot for our land.
Anybody who venture to come out tomorrow will regret his or her life. We warn you tomorrow is total lockdown in every part of Biafra tomorrow”.
